Kunstraub专辑介绍 Without any doubt, IN EXTREMO have been one of the most successful German rock bands over the last years! After their 2008 gold album "Sängerkrieg", "Sterneneisen" made it directly to the top of the German album charts in 2011 and was certified gold as well. Europe, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, the USA or China: IN EXTREMO have travelled around the world, selling more than a million records so far and winning one gold certification after the other. In a press conference during the Full Metal Cruise, where the band played two brilliant shows in international waters, the seven musicians announced their new studio album "KUNSTRAUB" for the fall of 2013, as well as another fantastic tour! After their much-noticed concert in 2012, In Extremo are to return to the Rockhal on 24 October 2013.

During his early-morning press review on an October day in 2012, the following report caught Dr. Pymonte’s eye: “Spectacular art heist in Rotterdam: seven master pieces were stolen – among them also paintings from Picasso, Monet and Matisse. The value of the stolen paintings is inestimable, as it is close to impossible to purchase them on the free market.” With this report it became clear to the harpist, dulcimer player and bagpiper what the new album of his band In Extremo must be called: “Kunstraub” (“Art Heist”).

His fascination for these sophisticated crooks also inspired him to write the lyrics to the song “Kunstraub” (“Art Heist”). “A coup like this requires wits and refinement”, he calls out, “this was not done by 20 year old morons. These must be true art experts, rascals with taste!” Drifters, hangdogs and rogues have always been of special interest to these modern minstrels. “Lebemann” (“Bon Viveur”) is yet another song on this album, written to memorialize exactly these outsiders. “A “bon vivieur” is the kind of guy, that doesn’t have a penny in his pocket and still travels the world. His bills are paid by the ladies” vocalist Micha Rhein aka Das Letzte Einhorn (“The Last Unicorn”) laughs.

Some of the songs have surprisingly heavy elements, pointing in the direction of thrash metal. Percussionist Specki demonstrates that he’s a master at playing the double bass drum and Basti, the guitarist, proves his passion for hard and heavy riffs in the style of Prong and Helmet. Rough sections in the songs are switched off by melodic folk – and medieval parts. This is where the two bagpipers Marco Zorzytzky (aka Flex der Biegsame) and Boris “Yellow“ Pfeiffer come in, blowing out tunes in the form of pure In-Ex- ecstasy. Of course, on top of all that, we have the sing along hymns such as “Alles schon gesehen“ (“Seen It All Already”) and “Himmel und Hölle“ (“Heaven and Hell”), that instantly invite their fans and listeners to chant along.
